Behind the Scenes

I thought I would show what happens at our gas station on an average weekend. This is in fast motion otherwise it would become very boring for the watcher. It spanned 3 hard working days. Some gas fills were not captured as I did not set up the camera for all the small quick fills. And twice on the busier times, I did not set the camera to time-lapse so got very long videos instead. Those were omitted from this video clip. I filled air, nitrox (partial pressure blending) and trimix. Haskel pumps, compressors and generators were used.

Our dive centre is totally off the local power grid, so we rely on solar and batteries for general use, and a 3-phase 10kVA generator to run the 300-bar compressor. We do ask clients to be energy efficient when they visit Komati Springs.

The horses keep me company and tend to gravitate towards where I am to be near me. I take that as a compliment. There are 4 horses in total, but most are out of camera shot. They look fat because of the camera angle but, they are just right.
